Although nanotechnology applied to medicine has a potentially huge impact on drug delivery and tissue engineering, significant challenges need to be resolved before clinically viable nanomedicine or nanobiomedicine therapies will be available. Skillfully edited, with contributions from an expert panel of researchers, Referred to as "nanomedicine" or "nanobiomedicine," the application of nanotechnology to medicine can impact diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of diseases, as well as the control and understanding of biological systems. Bringing together an unparalleled field of experts, this volume explores various aspects of nanotechnology and its applications in biomedical fields. The book uses an application-oriented approach to relate laboratory-based research to the development of technologies that are easily adaptable to an industry environment, focusing chiefly on drug delivery, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine.
